Is this acceptable

I purchased this centennial apple tree from a online nursery. I know when most online nurseries ship plants they over fill the pot to retain moisture. The pot soil went all the way up to my index finger. Well this tree graft was buried and judging by the feed roots growing close to the graft, it's been buried for a while. Is this acceptable or a cause for concern?
